‘No choice!’ Compelling new Scott Mills ‘evidence’ that forced BBC to sack him ‘revealed’

The latest on the Scott Mills sacking scandal has claimed that the BBC was left with “no choice” but to sack the DJ after compelling new information allegedly came to light.

Earlier this week, the Radio 2 Breakfast Show host was fired from his show and dropped by the BBC over allegations of historic sexual offences towards a boy under 16.

The Met Police revealed they had investigated the complaints, and the CPS found there wasn’t enough evidence to charge the DJ. Now, after his supporters asked why he was sacked when he wasn’t charged with any crime, new information over his axe has apparently been shared…

Scott Mills latest: ‘Compelling new information’

According to The Mirror, Scott Mills was sacked after the BBC received compelling new information about his alleged behaviour.

It’s claimed that, after reviewing the fresh allegations, the BBC was left with “no choice” but to axe Mills.

Apparently, while the new information involves the same person who brought the 2016 complaint, the complaint itself is different to the claims made during that investigation, which centred on allegations of serious sexual offences.

It’s claimed the BBC assessed the new details over the past few days. Bosses then made the decision to terminate his contract. It’s claimed they decided “he had to go.”

The paper added that the suggestion he was fired solely because of the 2016 police investigation is “wide of the mark”.

‘He is facing oblivion’

A friend of the DJ’s has allegedly told the paper he is devastated by his sacking. It came after “tense” talks with BBC bosses.

The pal said: “The show was his life and he is facing oblivion. It’s hard to see how he comes back at this moment in time.”

Meanwhile, it was also reported last night (March 31) that a freelance journalist had contacted the BBC in May 2025 to claim she had received information about separate allegations of “inappropriate communications” involving the presenter .

She asked whether the BBC was “ever aware of or involved in any related matters”. She also asked if the BBC had ever received any “formal or informal complaints” about Mills “relating to safeguarding, inappropriate conduct or harassment”. Finally, she claims she also asked whether it had ever conducted an internal investigation into him. She said she did not receive a response.

Now, the BBC has apologised.

A spokesperson said: “We received a press query in 2025 which included limited information. This should have been followed up and we should have asked further questions. We apologise for this and will look into why this did not happen. More broadly, we would always urge anyone who has concerns or information to raise it with us.”

ED! has contacted the BBC for additional comment. A previous statement read: “While we do not comment on matters relating to individuals, we can confirm Scott Mills is no longer contracted to work with the BBC.”
